Its important to know how we make our suits before you decide to commission us. All makers do things different, and with any form of art, there is no right or wrong way. We understand clients may have preferences for how a suit is made, so we are laying out the details of our suits for full transparency. If there's something you are wondering about that isn't listed here, please don't hesitate to ask us!
If you would like to request something different, please specify when you request a quote and we can see if we can accommodate your request. We will always work to accommodate those with disabilities.
